  • The Democrats have been a solidly center-right party for decades. JFK wasn’t a leftist! Today, the party has a small left wing, the DSA, represented by people like AOC; but the mainstream of the party remains solidly right-of-center. Democrats support big business, private land ownership, free trade, wage labor, and the rest of the center-right consensus.

    The Republicans, however, drifted from “a little bit right of the Democrats” to “for-real fascist” over the course of the Reagan, Bush, Cheney¹, and Trump administrations. Today, the leader of the Republicans is a Hitler fan.

    So, as usual, the first-past-the-post voting system sucks utter ass … but Americans today have a choice between a center-right president and a Nazi president.


    ¹ Yes, the Cheney administration. Nobody believes Bush Jr. was actually calling the shots.
